1 | Nation-wide MCA Compliance Requirements

Truth-in-Lending-style Transparency

Regulators increasingly shoe-horn MCAs into TILA-like analysis. Clear, up-front cost-of-capital summaries reduce UDAP exposure.

FTC Unfair / Deceptive Acts (UDAP)

The FTC can—and does—step in when marketing, broker splits, or collections cross the line.

BSA / AML & Know-Your-Customer

Even non-bank funders need robust AML programs, including SAR filing when suspicious.

Uniform Commercial Code (UCC-1) Filings

Perfect your security interest, file continuations every five years, and terminate liens on payoff.

Marketing Compliance (TCPA & CAN-SPAM)

Cold-texting merchants without consent? Expect $500–$1,500 per infraction.
